UNA galleria Contemporary Art Gallery for Emerging Artists

UNA galleria is a distinguished contemporary art gallery with physical locations in Piacenza and Milan, Italy. Founded by Marta Barbieri and Paola Bonino, the gallery focuses on the promotion and development of artists born in the 1980s and 1990s. Since its inception, UNA galleria has established itself as a vital platform for emerging creators, offering a curated program that includes solo exhibitions, group shows, and site-specific projects like Spazio Leonardo in Milan. The gallery's mission is to bridge the gap between private artistic worlds and public audiences, often utilizing ironic, poetic, and political themes through diverse media such as painting, sculpture, and sound installations. Notable exhibitions have featured international artists including Filippo Minelli, Thomas Berra, Josep Maynou, Irene Fenara, and Elvire Bonduelle. Collaborations with other institutions, such as Sabot gallery and Rodriguez Gallery, further expand the gallery's reach and influence within the global contemporary art scene. Each exhibition is designed to transform the gallery into an enveloping space, inviting visitors to experience another dimension of artistic expression. From Micaela Piñero’s ritualistic metal pieces to the environmental installations of Andreia Santana and Dalila Gonçalves, UNA galleria remains dedicated to exploring human instabilities and collective stories through a unique personal iconography. The gallery continues to foster dialogue between artists and their material objectuality, ensuring a lasting impact on the generation of artists it represents.
